This question is asking for a opinion with some facts to back it up, so I will try my best here.

<h3>Answer: Boredom and Frustration</h3>

There are many possible reasons that people bite their nails, like whether a finger nail clipper is available or they have developed a habit.

But there may be more to it than we think, researchers have found that bored and frustrated people bite their nails the most. The younger you are, the more likely you are to bite your nails.

Nearly half of adolescents bite their nails, according to one study, and upwards of 60 percent chewed them in childhood.

<h3>Some other reasons could be: </h3>

Nail Biters Are More Likely to Be Perfectionists

Psychiatric Disorders

Freud Thought It Was About Sex (Of Course)

These just some possible answers, but the main one is Boredom and Frustration.

What is the most effective way to avoid an unwanted pregnancy?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Condoms are your safer sex superhero: they're the only way to get protection from pregnancy and STDs during vaginal sex. No birth control method is perfect. So using condoms with another type of birth control (like the implant, IUD, or pill) gives you backup protection in case either method fails.

Walking to work is one way of helping improve air quality.<br> a. True<br> b. False
rusak2 [61]
<span>It is true that walking to work is one way of helping improve air quality. If you are walking, or riding a bicycle to your work, you are obviously not using a car or a bus which use fuel which pollutes air. So, if more people would do this, they would help improve their living conditions and the air we breathe, because each day, our air becomes more and more polluted. </span>
